Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[F][C][F]

[Verse 1]
While it [F]plagues your life
Somehow man you just [G]have to
be a [C]witness all the [F]time
While there's no con[G]trol
[Gm]You [F]stupid grin and then everyth[G]ing
[C]around you falls to [D]pieces
And you can't have [Am]anything
Everything can't [F]have you

[Verse 2]
[C]Standing out[G]side [F]the [G]light
[C]You can have your dreams as [G]long as
[F]they're black and [G]white
[C]Howling at the [G]vacant [F]moo[G]n
The [C]wind will drown the singer [G]along
with [F]his melancholy [D]tune
You can't have [Am]everything
Everything can't [F]have you
[C][G]

[Verse 3]
[F]
And oh this is your [G]life[F]
Sinking down and while [G]everything
[C]around you is so beauti[G]ful[F]
You have a [G]nameless [F]rage
A shrinking violet while the [G]people
You en[C]counter leave
you way too [D]soon
And you can't have [Am]everyone
Everyone can't [F]have you

[Verse 4]
[C]Standing out[G]side the [F]square[G]
[C]People come and vanish [G]with
in [F]your dark [G]stare
[C]Flailing in the [G]crazy [F]wind[G]
[C]You can have your four walls as
[G]long as [F]they're paper thin
[Dm]And [D]I feel like Jimmy Stewart
It's [Am]a wonderful lif[F]e[C]
It's a [F]wonderful life
[C]
